--Poe Boy and Cash Money signee, Brisco, is readying the release of his long awaited album Street Medicine. His newest single for the album is the Lil Wayne assisted "Wall".

--Jamaican pop and reggae sensation Jovi Rockwell has been on the road as of late. She's been really busy as well shooting an ad campaign with Puma in Los Angeles, and handling a couple appearances and shoots as a spokesperson for Liquid Lightning Energy Drink. She's also in the studio recording her upcoming Psycho Therapy II mixtape, which is the sequel to the original that released this past November. [Dangerously Beautiful]
--Pitbull sprung a little leak a couple weeks back with a song called "Allright". It turns out that the song will serve as the first single to his next English album entitled Planet Pit, that will come out later this year after his Spanish album Armando. So yes, two albums in one year for Pitbull. [PlanetPit]
--Miami mega-band Mayday reveals that their next album, Stuck On An Island, will be a 16 track effort that will release in May (of course). Promising to take the same path of their past efforts, yet "throw an atomic bomb" in the mix to really give it some excitement. Mayday is currently on the road. Fresh from Atlanta earlier this week, they are performing at The House Fire event in Austin for SXSW tonight and tomorrow. [The305]
